Nursing Aide - CCOMP
Allied Heath Care careers involve providing care for other people in a specialized manner. Each career is concerned with attaining and maintaining quality of life for those in need, with a majority of those individuals being the elderly population.
Careers
CNAs provide personal care for primarily the elderly in a long term care or hospital setting. They assist individuals with dressing, ambulation, feeding, bathing, toileting, perineal and oral care, range of motion exercises and restorative care. This is an entry-level position in nursing and is required before many of the other careers can be entered.
